A further object is to provide adevice of the character mentioned which embodies a like member designed to serve as a support for lighted cigars and the like.

In describing the invention in detail, reference is herein had to the accompanying drawings, in whicha i Figure 1 is a central vertical section of the invention; and- Y Y 1 Figure 2 is a top plan view of the same, shown on a reduced scale. e

Referring to saiddrawings, 1 indicates the contracted neck'portion of a bowl-2 which may be made of any appropr ate material, preferably translucent'glass. Said bowl is preferably'circular in cross section and grad-' ually increases in diameter from its said neck portion to a level at or adjacent to its bottom or base portion, as shown. Formed I interiorly of the of said- -4-formed annularly n tion to the cone 3 at a level bowl s a centrally located upright cone 3 having a height approximat ing one half the depth of the bowl, the walls cone being continuous with and approximating the thickness of the bottom walls of said bowl 5' said cone obviously being "formed in the-process of blowing or pressing the bowl by causing the glass to flow about a correspondingly'shaped upright cone theneck 1 of the 'bowlis a horizontal flan en the upper end 0 a tubular member 5 which depends within the bowland has its lower end disposed in more or less closelylembracing, or encircling, relalocated somewhat below the apex of the latter. a

Ashes, cigar butts and the like may be conyeniently deposited and find lodgment with-v 1n the primary receiver constituted by the tubular member 5 and the therewith cooperating cone. From time to time said member may be elevated slightly, employing the flange 4 as a finger piece' for effecting the elevating movement, thereby to release or which then bowl about When the flanged tubular member 5. is reseated, the matter so'deposited is wholly concealed from dislodge the collected matter, gravitates to the interior of the view.
